The fourth listed author and Hans Parshall (\cite{IosevichParshall}) proved that if $E \subset {\mathbb F}_q^d$, $d \ge 2$, and $G$ is a connected graph on $k+1$ vertices such that the largest degree of any vertex is $m$, then if $|E| \ge C…

Suppose $d+1$ absolutely continuous probability measures $m_0, \ldots, m_d$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ are given. In this paper, we prove that there exists a point of $\mathbb{R}^d$ that belongs to the convex hull of $d+1$ points $v_0, \ldots, v_d$…

Gersho's conjecture in 3D asserts the asymptotic periodicity and structure of the optimal centroidal Voronoi tessellation. This relatively simple crystallization problem remains to date open. We prove bounds on the geometric complexity of…

We use the Gelfand-Tsetlin pattern to construct an effective Hamiltonian, completely integrable action of a torus T on an open dense subset of a coadjoint orbit of the unitary group. We then identify a proper Hamiltonian T-manifold centered…

Motivated by intuitions from projective algebraic geometry, we provide a novel construction of subsets of the $d$-dimensional grid $[n]^d$ of size $n - o(n)$ with no $d + 2$ points on a sphere or a hyperplane. For $d = 2$, this improves the…

Expander graphs have been intensively studied in the last four decades. In recent years a high dimensional theory of expanders has emerged, and several variants have been studied. Among them stand out coboundary expansion and topological…

We develop a new simple approach to prove upper bounds for generalizations of the Heilbronn's triangle problem in higher dimensions. Among other things, we show the following: for fixed $d \ge 1$, any subset of $[0, 1]^d$ of size $n$…

In 2009, Roeglin and Teng showed that the smoothed number of Pareto optimal solutions of linear multi-criteria optimization problems is polynomially bounded in the number $n$ of variables and the maximum density $\phi$ of the semi-random…

We derive tight expressions for the maximum number of $k$-faces, $0\le{}k\le{}d-1$, of the Minkowski sum, $P_1+...+P_r$, of $r$ convex $d$-polytopes $P_1,...,P_r$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, where $d\ge{}2$ and $r<d$, as a (recursively defined)…

Let $\mu$ be a Borel probability measure in $\mathbb R^d$. For a $k$-flat $\alpha$ consider the value $\inf \mu(H)$, where $H$ runs through all half-spaces containing $\alpha$. This infimum is called the half-space depth of $\alpha$. Bukh,…

We show that for some absolute (explicit) constant $C$, the following holds for every finitely generated group $G$, and all $d >0$: If there is some $ R_0 > \exp(\exp(Cd^C))$ for which the number of elements in a ball of radius $R_0$ in a…

We construct a uniformly bounded symplectic structure on $S^2 \times \mathbb{R}^4$ admitting embeddings by arbitrarily large balls. This provides a counterexample to a recent conjecture of Savelyev. We then prove the conjecture holds for a…

A well known consequence of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem is that if the $d$-dimensional sphere $S^d$ is covered with less than $d+2$ open sets, then there is a set containing a pair of antipodal points. In this paper we provide lower and upper…

Let $X$ be a space equipped with $n$ topologies $\tau_1,...,\tau_n$ which are pairwise comparable and saturated, and for each $1\leq i\leq n$ let $k_i$ and $f_i$ be the associated topological closure and frontier operators, respectively.…

We study the complexity of the maximum coverage problem, restricted to set systems of bounded VC-dimension. Our main result is a fixed-parameter tractable approximation scheme: an algorithm that outputs a $(1-\eps)$-approximation to the…

Let G be a compact connected Lie group G and T its maximal torus. The coadjoint orbit O_lambda through lambda in Lie(T)^* is canonically a symplectic manifold. Therefore we can ask the question about its Gromov width. In many known cases…

The colourful simplicial depth problem in dimension d is to find a configuration of (d+1) sets of (d+1) points such that the origin is contained in the convex hull of each set (colour) but contained in a minimal number of colourful…

Erd\H{o}s and Purdy, and later Agarwal and Sharir, conjectured that any set of $n$ points in $\mathbb R^{d}$ determine at most $Cn^{d/2}$ congruent $k$-simplices for even $d$. We obtain the first significant progress towards this…

A solution to a problem of Erd\H{o}s, Rubin and Taylor is obtained by showing that if a graph $G$ is $(a:b)$-choosable, and $c/d > a/b$, then $G$ is not necessarily $(c:d)$-choosable. The simplest case of another problem, stated by the same…

The {\em overlap number} of a finite $(d+1)$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is defined as the largest constant $c(H)\in (0,1]$ such that no matter how we map the vertices of $H$ into $\R^d$, there is a point covered by at least a $c(H)$-fraction of…
